The US has also subsidized our automakers with loans. Also, Why the fuck do you think you cant import a Chinese EV? Protection/subsidization.

If we have full-on, mainstream compatibility layers for graphics APIs (Proton, Crossover), surely its trivial to do the same for documents......

Anduril, Palantir, Mithril Capital, Valar Vantures, Erebor Capital, Rohan AI, Rivendell One, Lembas LLC, Sauron Systems......All in open use today. The worst part is its all racist/classist dog whistles. They use this framing to indicate they are fighting to save 'the Western World' and all the shittiness that entails.

Selling engine licenses requires dedicated staff for it. Its a wholly different business than making games. Here is an article about why they stopped. https://www.gamedeveloper.com/...

Apple TV is by far the best streamer box for clean no-ads experiences.

Because we have a duopoly, and thus they both need to be restrained, guided and controlled by government intervention. Apple/Android lost any semblance of being able to 'free market' their business when they became defacto gear for modern living. They wanted to use phones to open cars, hotel doors and act as a digital wallet, well there are social prices to these features. Almost everyone needs a phone and there are only 2 options at this level. Regulation is required for things that scale across so many people.

Dude, he shamelessly supports trump, giving him gifts and over a million dollars of his own money for the inauguration, not to mention Apple donating for the White House ballroom. He is not a decent human being

Its just like the Meta VR avatars. They built the Zuck one first, and then modeled the rest on that aesthetic.

Apple should not be able to dictate what software can run on an iphone, period. The contract itself is fundamentally flawed.

I have to point out that this is in part due to MacOS deprecating all 32-bit programs in 2019. Huge swaths of 'MacOS' games on Steam wont run anymore.

PS5 was hardware profitable 9 months after launch....

I have my wifes work computer set up like this. LG 2k 32" with 140w adapter to Dell corpobook. I call it the 'god wire'. Hell my 4k 32" can put out 200+ watts. I didnt even realize it could do that until i started setting it up and going 'why the fuck is the power brick so big???'

ALL security is a compromise between protection and usability.

Ill be honest, i always have a hard time finding the calendar icon on iOS precisely because it changes every day. An option to toggle it live or static would be nice. Hell MS had that ability in Win 8...

This is the lamest of insults. By god are you stupid.
